A Night of Terror.
call.

Mention was made in the last issue of
the TRIBUNE of the fears entertained by
the friends of Rev. Joal and Mrs. Vigus.
who left here last Thursday, bound for
Benton, that they had become lost on the
plains between here and 2S-Mile Springs.
Their fears were well founded, as subse-
quently shown, for the couple when at a
point about four miles this side of the
Springs, lost the road, became bewildered
and struck camp in coulee. and during
the long vigils of the night with ought but
buffalo robe to keep them warm, watched
until the first gray streaks in the east be-
tokened the approach Of another day, when
they abandoned their vehicle and started
afoos through the deep snow for the sta
ton, which they finally reached in an ex-.
hausted condition. Fortunately the night
was not very cold, otherwise their suffer
ing would have been intense. Even as it
was, it could not be other than night of
terror.

WHEN WURsT COMES TO WORST.

Said Tom to Harry, come let's eat
A little weiner-Wurst,
I'm hungry and twill be q treat.
With beer we'll quench our thirst.
A score of links they ate that night
Of beer they drank their fill.
Dutchy's attention they did requite
And paid their little bill.
To bed they went and peaceful sleep
They sought upon the pillows
But dreams disturbed them, nor coult
keep
Down nightmares tossing pillows.
When morning came they both were pail
And each looked penetential.
In turn they told grievous tale
10 friends most confidential.
Of mad cap freaks in palace halls,
Of friends sad breach of manners,
OF rout and wassail, stylish balls,
vi hiccoughing and stsmmers.
Kind friends, beware in future how
Iou take chances with the sdssaqe.
Or wicked dreams will lay you low.
You'll miss your heavenly passage,
No golden stairs you'll ever climb
Weighed down with deadly link.
Narrow escape you've had one time
"Verbum sap'-is enough think.
Dedicated to the Departed,
T. II. TINS.

A wood-chopper employed BY Hamilton
d Eaton, on the island above town, had
the misfortune to cut his leg and foot very
severely last Monday. The axe struck the
tibia bone, splitting it and entering the
instep severed the ligaments, and destroy
ing the use of the joint. The poor fellow
nearly bled to death before medical assis-
tance came to his aid. His injury will be
permanent, but DR.. Ladd, his medical ad-
wiser, hopes to save his limb.

The Neihart Camp.

Among the towns naturally tributary to
Great Falls, our attention has frequently
been called to Neihart From reliable
sources we learn that at the present time
Neihart contains population of about $50
who are even at this time of year in vigor-
Gus prosecution of their accustomed voca-
tions. 1t is claimed by those who should
know, that in a radius of three miles there
is as much ore as in any camp in Montana.
Though much of the ore runs very high,
the bulk of it wont bear the cost of trans
portation to Omaha under existing draw
backs and make profitable return to the
miner. Freight to Townsend by wagon
costs $40 per ton. By car load lots to
Omaha SIS; added to this is the cost of
reduction $15, making in all $40 per ton.
At the present time, ,and in fact for some
time past, there has been growing feel
ing in Neihart in favor of this place,
Neihart and that section of the country
will eventually not only purchase their
supplies in Great Falls, but will also ship
their ore to this place for treatment.
A number of the leading business men
and others who have interests at stake, are
strongly in favor of wagon road on this
side of the Belt range.
The grade to White Sulphur Springs is
exceedingly steep and difficult, being in
one place 1900 feet in miles, and in win
ter full of snow. While on this side there
is an easy, almost imperceptable grade,
with grazing for stock, which does not
offer itself on the other side. Give the
people Of Neihart practicable wagon
road leading down to our county line, and
our folks will see that our end of the line
will present them with a sure and good
road into Great Falls.

Religious Notes.

Last Sundy at II a. m. the Rev. J. M.
Largent preached an able sermon. Sun
day school convened in the afternoon as
usual. In the evening the Rev. Jno Reid
preached upon Christ as King, being the
third and last sermon of the series on
Christ as Prophet, Priest and King. Next
Sunday at 7:S0 p. NJ, the same gentleman
will give a sermon upon "Doubtings.'' .
After his sermon last Sunday night the
Rev. gentleman made an earnest appeal
to his audience for pecuniary aid in sup
porting him in his ministerial work. He
gave abundant reasons why he should be
supported in his work, and we trust that
the TRIBUNE readers, with their accustomed
western generosity, will respond to the
call.

Episcopal Services.

Rev. Clews of Fort Benton, will hold
services in Mr.. Huy's store building on
Sunday next at II a. m. We are not in
formed what text Mr. Clews will discourse
upon, but We are sure whatever it may be
it will be handled with ability and learn
ing and pure christian spirit that has char
acterized the life and work of this gentle
man for the past few years in this country
A choir under the leadership of Mrs. Rolfe
has been organized and an organ procured
for the occasion, SO we may expect some
very excellent music. All are cordially

The above is a rare piece of news in

Of course when there is an unusual

than at any other point on the line, except

Reception and Social.

A few of the active lady members of the
Episcopal church have arranged to hold a
social in Mr.. Huy's building on Central
avenue this evening. Rev. Mr.. Clews will
be here and it is desired that everyone who
can possibly do SO will attend and have an
opportunity Of meeting the Rev. gentleman
whom we hope to have with US at regular
intervals in the future. The ladies with
their usual generosity have decided to fur
nish refreshments for the occasion, and we
doubt not some excellent musical enter
tainment. All are cordially invited if
members of this church or not.

a Sad Accident.

Last Tuesday evening while crossing
Central ave. opposite Ben. Lapeyre's drug
store, Mrs NJ. Sutherland, very worthy
lady, slipped and fell, breaking her left
arm near the shoulder. The injury will
likely incapaciate the old lady from further
labor duringslife, which is very unfortu-
nate, as her labor has been her sole sup
port. She is very worthy subject of
charity in her afiiction, and we trust the
good people of Great Falls will not allow
her to want for anything.

Condition of Stock.

During the recent cold snap, when the
snow was laying on the ground to the
depth of eighteen inches. grave fears were
entertained by northern Montana cattle
men for their vagrant possessions, but the
chinook of last week cleaned up the snow
sufficiently to give plenty Of feed, and
with anything like fair weather from this
time forward, cattle will go through with
out more than the usual loss. Horses are
in excellent condition on the ranges, and

time it took him fair and square on the
nose. Wiping his nasal appendage on his
sleeve, and using the tsgend of his neck
erchief to absorb the glittering tear drops
that stood in his sorrowful eyes, he in-
formed DR.. Pottle that he had come all the
way from the rural districts on purpose to
clean him up, and that he had told the
boys he was going to do it. The doctor
offered no objections to being cleaned up,
and helped his giganic adversary to don 8
pair of gloves, and putting pair on his
own hands, all was ready. The lanky
Jehu made pass and struck the air, but
received from his oppnent smack on the
head that sent him staggering. The Pro
fessor kept on landing in his blows, which
kept the big fellow reeling. To see him
one would think he was trying to fight
and dance Highland fling at the same
time. Sometimes he would run after the
doctor, and, of course, each time his nose
would come into collision with the latter's
fist. Finally two blows in rapid success
sion, one on the nose and another on the
chin, sent him sprawling on his back in a
corner, and the doer up was done! Then
the doctor helped his man up and apollo
gized for his severely on the ground that
the ''doer-ap" was so much bigger than
himself that he had to strike out little
harder than usual to make the blows
equalize the difference in size and weight.
When all was smoothed over, the tall,
gaunt form, with the haggard eyes and
sickly smile, said he'd treat if the doctor
wouldn't tell anybody, but the latter who
is always averse to treats of that descrip-
would not accept.

grass and coming crops of small grain
than she does now. A good cattle mar

much ground as she has lost in three.

Texas. One year in three OF bad crops
